Learning to Play Guitar: Planting for Control and Accuracy

First, contemplate the principles of tonal beauty, as taught by the great Romero brothers. Study the technique of “planting”, an aid for technical accuracy. Learn the D and A major chords, and how to read key signatures. Then play a new melody in D major, and accompany it in fingerstyle using your new chords. This lecture, presented by Colin McAllister, is from Learning to Play Guitar: Chords, Scales, and Solos. Discover the joy of playing, reading, and understanding music from a master teacher, in this hands-on course.
